Joint Hole - To Red Baron Passage (Diving)

The raw footage has been sat on my laptop for months, but finally got around to editing it into some sort of watchable video (subjective statement).

This captures a dive I did with George into Joint Hole. We dived to Albatross Aven, but this clip just shows up to Red Baron Passage. I've tried out some new overlays of the survey, to give a sense of direction and progress through the sump. Comments and critique always welcome :D

Really enjoyed that Jonny. Lovely footage presented nice and simply without any bravado or "look at me" agenda (as is common with lots of caving videos). It really showed the journey through the cave in an absorbing way.

My only slight criticism is about the bit before the dive. Did you speed the video up? It was a bit jerky / quick and felt out of sync with the rest of the video which felt calm and serene and almost made me want to become a cave diver!
 
Thanks Dave, I did speed it up (and cut out some extra faffage) from that part. Otherwise it's quite a tedious watch of getting kitted up.

Maybe show it at normal speed, but only a short section? Just my preference of course. And it doesn't really detract from what was a very enjoyable video.
